Constructor Detail

TextFieldAutomationHelper

()

Constructor

public function TextFieldAutomationHelper(owner:IEventDispatcher, replayer:IAutomationObject, textField:IUITextField)

Constructor.

Parameters

	`owner:IEventDispatcher`

	`replayer:IAutomationObject`

	`textField:IUITextField`

Method Detail

recordAutomatableEvent

()

method

public function recordAutomatableEvent(interaction:Event, cacheable:Boolean = false):void

Records the user interaction with the text control.

Parameters

	`interaction:Event`

	`cacheable:Boolean` (default = `false`)

replayAutomatableEvent

()

method

public function replayAutomatableEvent(event:Event):Boolean

Replays TypeTextEvents and TypeEvents. TypeTextEvents are replayed by calling replaceText on the underlying text field. TypeEvents are replayed depending on the character typed. Both also dispatch the origin keystrokes. This is necessary to mimic the original behavior, in case any components are listening to keystroke events (for example, DataGrid listens to itemRenderer events, or if a custom component is trying to do key masking). Ideally, the code would just dispatch the original keystrokes, but the Flash Player TextField ignores the events we are sending it.

Parameters

event:Event — Event to replay.

Returns

Boolean — If true, replay the event.
